FireFox would be perfect if....

You could save your workspace, I find that when I'm working on a project I
keep many web pages open at once in tabbed form, only to have to reopen them
all again manually everytime I startup my PC during the project lifetime.

It'd be perfect if you could save the tabbed websites so that everytime you
start up FireFox you could easily choose your previous workspace, which then
opened all tabs to correct addresses automatically.

They've probably already thought of this and its in the plans somewhere
along the lines right?

You could create a bookmark folder for the day, save all the work sites
in it,then open the folder the next day using "open in tabs".

Opera does this (or did, since I have not used it for several years).
In one sense it was nice, in another sense I would get so many pages
held in limbo that it would take forever to load. Of course Opera is
slow and crash prone anyhow which is why I stopped using it, not to
mention the price.

Anyhow, I miss the one feature that IE has, which is Right click on a
page and create an icon on the desktop. That way when I was busy and
had several pages open, and got tired or had to leave, I just made
these desktop links. While I dont care for IE, I do miss that one
option. What I have done in FF is to just make a bookmark folder
called CURRENT, and put my working pages in there.

Hope that helps.

Ahh, thanks for the link, looks like just what I wanted! Thanks for the
different methods, and yeah true about the IE desktop option, I've only
started using FF and didn't notice it missing. OTH I kept having to do a
regular and complete clearup of my desktop thanks to that!
